Lemuel Conner Hutchins ’43
Lem died Aug. 14, 2000, at his home in Tyler, Tex., at the age of 77.
Lem graduated from the high school in that city, then Princeton, and ultimately, Harvard law school in 1949. During WWII, he served in the Army Air Corps in Iceland and Guam.
A practicing attorney for more than 50 years, Lem acted as an assistant DA early in his career and later as pres. of the county bar association. He was very interested in the Boy Scouts, having been an eagle scout himself, as well as such charitable organizations as Community Chest, the Red Cross, and the YMCA. In addition, Lem was a Mason, Shriner, and Rotarian.
He is survived by his wife of 52 years, the former Martha Jo Hawes, son Robert, daughters Nancy Bailey and Martha Lee Hutchins, and two grandchildren.
To the entire family, we extend our most heartfelt condolences.
